BC School Fruit & Vegetable Nutritional Program
The BC School Fruit and Vegetable Nutritional Program is part of ActNowBC, an initiative to improve the health of BC children and families.
Participation in this Program is at NO COST to the school throughout the school year. Students and school staff receive a fresh fruit or vegetable snack twice a week every other week. Eating the recommended amounts of fruits and vegetables improves children's health and improves children's ability to concentrate. The fresh and nutritious fruits and vegetables to be served in the Program will be grown in BC, subject to availability.
